Chapter 67 (1/2)

Sounds are coming out from the building. Rustle, rustle, like that.

It seems something is moving.

Something is……

「Oo~i…… 」

Elm is calling out, however……

Just the sound of rustling returns…… ara, a person appeared from inside…… she seems to be smeared in dust……

「Fuu~…… welc…… ah, Elm?」

Pat, pat she hits her body in a rush…… yes, she’s. .h.i.tting it.

Just what has happened that it turned out like this…… a trash house……

「It’s not ‘ah, Elm’…… what’s up with you……」

「Lately…… overflow of monsters? Fields suddenly started overflowing? Anyhow, everyone is bringing things, and I don’t even know who brought what……」

「Ha?」

「Everyone just comes with magic stones and goes back hunting…… because vegetables are overflowing, they just leave it there…… then they immediately spoil…… I don’t know what to do……」

Umm…… an abnormal situation?

But, it didn’t feel like this in the village?

「Because there was nothing I could do, I thought about checking the old doc.u.ments…… whether there’s some information」

Let’s see, she didn’t know what to do, so she checked the old doc.u.ments……

N? Doc.u.ments? They have books here?

「Shall we help you with looking?」

「W, who?」

「Ah, nice to meet you. I’m called Koyu. I’m being escorted by Elm-san’s team, we are on our way to Tiyul」

「Tiyul?」

「Yeah, I heard they have onsen there」

「Where did you departure from?」

「Eh? Capital? I think?」

「Isn’t the direction wrong?」

Eh?

「It’s all right, we have definitely not made a mistake」

「I, is that so?」

「Eh? You will get there, but aren’t you taking quite the detour?」

Eh?

「Yeah, a lot has happened on the way」

N? What has?

s.h.i.+en answers my confusion.

「Baasan…… a lot has happened, didn’t it?」

s.h.i.+en?

Eh? What has?

Umm, my eyes switch from s.h.i.+en to Elm to the general store miss repeatedly…… I’m getting dizzy……

「Rather than that, have you figured something?」

Eh? The explanation?

「U~n…… somehow?」

「If that’s the case, how about cleaning the store first?」

「Eeh~…… I’m hungry…..」

「As if you could eat in that!」

「Not possible…… I feel unwell now……」

Ha??

Umm…… even though she feels unwell, weren’t this person in there until now? Is she all right, I wonder……

For now, we have returned to the inn.

That’s because it has been decided to let the general store’s Mirei-san have a meal……

She was a bit…… no, she was considerably dirty, so Iris has casten Clean on her…… the dust danced around her and headed towards me.

Gulp, gulp, gulp…… Mirei-san eats while letting out such noises. Just when did she have her last meal?

Because there, unfortunately, were no leftovers from the breakfast, Landlady-san and Landlord-san had to quickly prepare the food.

We are amazed by her eating.

It seems it will take her a while to finish eating.
